Parallel-plate time projection chamber operation in a magnetic field
A small time projection chamber with a parallel-plate avalanche chamber as an end-cap detector was tested in a magnetic field of up to 10 kG. An increase of sparking rate at a given gain with increasing magnetic field was observed.
